Barrow looked very good, but there is no doubt that we were also very bad!


But that is my point. They made us bad by forcing us to retreat and defend in numbers.

"we need to be more ruthless in both boxes"

*Grimsby Town are more ruthless in both boxes, but pretty crap overall, however it results in a win*........

Fans weren't giving a great deal of praise in matches where we played well, because we threw away leads, and it was all pointless if you don't get the points. Now we win a match in which we were second best and everyone is quick to point out we were crap. We were, but who cares?

If you're only ever gonna be happy when we win games AND play really well, supporting a lower league team may not be the pastime for you, hah.

Wins a win....everyone knows full well we can play a hell of a lot better than that. But we needed them 3 points.

With the Mariner Fans Annual Scratch Your Eyes Out coming early this year, lets have a recap.
11 th game (25% of the season)  13/33 pts. And we won. Onto the next game.
Now that Sutton and FGR (last year's Blue Eyed boys, "wish we were them"  )  have blocked the Drop Zone, we can reflect without panic, including me.
I've never been a fan of PH but never wanted to behead him. I always think his teams have had no prep, and have a natter in the tunnel at the start of the match to sort out positions. And with regards Town scoring early, in Fergies time, it was opinioned, scoring too early against Man Utd was said to make them mad, and they gave teams a thrashing for the audacity of scoring first. Town seems to take fright in being two up, and cannot grab the situation and finish teams off. I mean they were two up (could have been three) they must have done something right. Right?

Funny you should say that as I was chatting to a former player ( 2 seasons and regular starter)  who said pretty much that is what happens under Hurst,  very little discussed about who is particularly doing what on the field but he puts the onus on the players and their experience to manage their individual games , yes some opposition traits are discussed but not in the tiniest detail.
I found that quite surprising given how we seem to over consider the opposition in set up but that is what he said.
